About Me

I'm a mother of 4 with an ambition for running. I spend most of my time chasing after my kiddos but I stick in some training and chase my PR's when I can. I graduated with a B.S. degree in Exercise Science and then obtained an A.S. degree in Physical Therapy. Although I stay at home with my family, I use blogging as an outlet to gain and share any knowledge that can. Thanks for stopping by and letting me share my experiences with you!

Thanks for Dropping In!

New Toy + Baby Tortilla Wraps

Isn't it amazing how fast electronics get outdated? I've had my Ipod Nano for about 4 years and I can no longer find accessories for it. My poor armband has been held together with duct tape for quite some time and it has a permanent odor that has caused my closet to radiate with "B.O.'dior".

It's long past due for a replacement but there is not an armband like this to be found. There's a "fit's most Ipod's" arm sleeve for $20 at Wallyworld but there's no access window for the control buttons and it looks huge. So I thought, why spend the money on something that probably won't work when I can spend $20 more and get this...

Bye-bye armbands! Hello clip-on.

Also, thought I'd share a new meal idea I got from a friend (Connie:).

Baby Tortilla Wraps

Why haven't I thought of these before? I've made plenty of wraps in my day but never thought to cut them like little sushi rolls. Inside the tortillas I added turkey, cheese, tomato, pickle, lettuce, and some low fat cream cheese* to hold it together. Walla! I can pop these right in (probably because I have a big mouth) and not have to mess around with my wrap that keeps falling apart (probably because I'm retarded).

They are so very pretty aren't they? Normally I would use whole wheat tortilla's and if you use the light cream cheese you can't call it an unhealthy spread. Try adding a little ranch dressing (like a tsp ranch to 3 tbsp cream cheese) or other seasonings to the cream cheese.You could use hummus too. I love Athenos Spicy Three Pepper Hummus.
